Finished the profile involving the MIT Fellows program in Africa. Crazy to think the United States actually once spent money trying to build up civil infrastructure in Africa, even though McPhee doesn't really interrogate any of the imperial reasons why a US-backed enterprise like the Fellows program might have existed.

Read the first two profiles. The influence of McPhee on William Langewiesche, the writer who singlehandedly most reshaped my writing, is palpable. Picked this up as potential inspiration for a novel I'm working on, prompted by discovering McPhee's name in one of the many obits for Langewiesche after his recent passing.
